Sasha and Malia Obama’s school is the Sidwell Friends School in D.C. Need more be said? The Society of Friends has long been anti-American and anti-Semitic.

What is this “Friends” name business?

What is the connection between the “Friends” Seminary and the Sidwell “Friends” School.

Do you happen to know the basis for the name, “Friends”?

Sidwell Friends did apologize for the Pearl Harbor Day menu.
At that link there was another link to the apology, though I didn’t watch it.

I never have heard of “Society of Friends”, myself and remain curious about the connection between the name Friends and its use in other institutions like the Sidwell School, and the Seminary.
